Try re-adding, sometimes successful. Sometimes not. Not 100% sure there is a developer response, good concept though. ### 2/5 — Why not allow it on iPad??? *2023-06-01, version 5.41* On an iPad you can text, FaceTime! And email. Why do you not allow it to be set up on an iPad? ### 4/5 — klappt gut, einfach und mit einer Hand auf dem Fahrrad gut zu bedienen *2022-10-12* gewöhnt man sich schnell dran und leichte Bedienung.. ist doch ganz gut, daß man nach Personenwahl nochmal bestätigen muss, weil dadurch Falschanrufe vermieden werden. ### 2/5 — Needs to be fixed *2022-04-17, version 5.41* Since ios 15 half my favs work and some dont and i have not added or taken anyone off my list. Please fix. ### 4/5 — Easy to use sometimes? *2022-01-27, version 5.41* I love this app but sometimes it is messy ### 2/5 — Verbesserung *2021-12-06* Leider bekommt man auf Anfragen oder Anregungen keine Antwort **Developer response:** Stimmt nicht! Alle Anfragen werden umgehend beantwortet! ### 2/5 — Needs Improvement *2021-10-05* I should be able to hit one button ONE time to make a call. Hitting it twice is the same as using my phone book- I hit it twice to make a call. Not a useful program. **Developer response:** The confirmation of the call (with an additional tap) is a security feature introduced with iOS 10 and the the same for all 3rd-party quick dial apps. So unfortunately this is not in the hands of us developers. ### 2/5 — WhatsApp nicht möglich? *2021-02-11* Leider finde ich keine Möglichkeit den Link zu WhatsApp zu nutzen. Find ich echt nicht gut, nirgendwo eine Lösung zu finden. **Developer response:** Man muss einfach dreimal auf den Kontakt tippen (ist konfigurierbar) oder lange auf den Kontakt drücken und WhatsApp aus der Liste wählen. ### 3/5 — It’s okay...closer than most *2020-10-17* I got this app bc it was closest to the app I was using (that lost it’s mind with the IOS14 update). It is great that I don’t have to scroll through all my contacts. As everyone else has said, it would be great if you tapped a contact and it placed the call, rather than ask you if that’s what you want to do. I can’t use Facetime Audio as an option (needed for me to contact my youngest). It would be kickin if you could choose the options seen on a number. I don’t have WhatsApp, and am not using email or Facetime with my contacts. When I do have to press and hold, it’s alot to take in a full screen of stuff I don’t use (a quintuple tap is insane 😂)...doubles the time looking for what I need. I know that some people need all the stuff...it would be awesome if it were an option, and not mandatory. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! In the current version (5.3) you can freely define the actions for taps, and disable WhatsApp, for example! ### 3/5 — Be ware !!! *2020-06-02, version 5.2* This is not a quick dial, this is a 2 taps dial and you have to wait so long to get the second tap, after the first tap appears a message "cancel or call" , i have OFF the "confirm to call" option on the settings of the app, if you want to i can show the video in youtube or Facebook, i am not lying. ### 5/5 — Super *2020-01-03* Funktioniert einwandfrei. Klasse! Bin sehr erfreut. Erleichtert das telefonieren etc. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Won’t save *2026-03-02, version 5.41* T ### 1/5 — Don’t bother *2026-02-27, version 5.41* Bad app. Randomly drops contacts you’ve assigned. Not worth $1 let alone $5 ### 1/5 — Funktioniert nicht *2026-02-01* Weise Kontakte zu und beim erneuten öffnen der App ist alles wieder weg bis auf einen. ### 1/5 — Ios 18 ne fonctionne pas *2024-09-30* Ne fonctionne pas avec ios 18 ### 1/5 — Update needed *2024-02-04, version 5.41* This app does not seem to be compatible with the new iPhone 15 Pro Max. Once I delete a contact, the space stays black and I cannot install a new contact. ### 1/5 — Not Direct Dial. It takes 2 taps to connect not 1 *2023-01-03* This app takes 2 taps to dial. There are other apps that are free in the App Store that do the same thing. The first is the person you are calling on the app the 2nd is the link to the the button to make the call. Unless I am missing something this app does not"direct dial" **Developer response:** The reason for the confirmation is only because iOS since a few years does not allow calls from external apps without a user agreement (this is a security feature). Still, however, our app allows to swiftly call your favorite contacts in a fast and convenient way. ### 1/5 — a la semana deja de funcionar se bloquea la pantalla *2022-11-17, version 5.41* compre la aplicación funcionó 5 días y dejo de funcionar el 1x ya que no permite disparar la llamada se bloquea la pantalla en mi iphone 14 ### 1/5 — Does not work with iPad *2022-03-18* Yeah all right I thought I could use this neat app to make it easy to contact my friends and family. It does not work with my iPad. Yeah I use magicJack to make my phone calls on my iPad and do not expected to work with that. But it also said that you can’t text. Well what about FaceTime it doesn’t work with that either. Or email it just tells you it doesn’t work when you try to set it up. Very disappointing that they didn’t give a warning. ### 1/5 — Bad application *2020-09-24, version 5.2* The only reason I use this app is because it’s the only one I can find for speed dial. It is very difficult to add numbers… It is cumbersome. Sometimes works, sometimes doesn’t. ### 1/5 — Very limited options *2019-10-24, version 4.93* If you have more then one number in a contact, it won’t give you an option which number you want on the speed dial, No option for iMessage, only sms ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Hyper utile *2026-07-15* Je l’utilise très régulièrement depuis 2014. J’ai un peu galéré à l’époque avec les réglages. Mais aujourd’hui l’auteur a clarifié le fonctionnement. Un grand merci au développeur. ### 5/5 — It’s been great *2024-03-02* I’ve been using this app for several years now and have been very pleased with it. I’m going to put it on my wife’s phone. ### 5/5 — Satisfied *2023-01-19* This is very handy and how I call about 80% of the time. Only gripe: now and then it loses a few numbers - which is aggravating when I’m in a rush to call. Need to make it available again! By losing numbers I mean that when I open the app one or two of the, previously filled, positions are blank (empty) and have to be re-entered. **Developer response:** Many thanks for the great review! What exactly do you mean by ‚loosing a few numbers‘? Update: Thanks for clarification! This is very strange and should not happen. We will try figuring out the reason for this issue and fix it. ### 5/5 — This works great! *2022-03-11* Just the ticket for easy speed dialing. No bugs. ### 5/5 — App is fixed again *2020-12-15* The app was working great until yesterday’s update that was supposed to fix something with the zoom settings in iPhone 12. Now everything is all messed up. Please fix quickly! This is my go to dialer. UPDATE: the app is fixed again and looks great and is working fine. ### 5/5 — Amazing Response *2020-12-15* Within 24 hours of the issue they rectified the same & made the App Amazing Again Hats Off to the team & really appreciate the quick response we need people & developers like you **Developer response:** Please update to version 5.4, it should solve the problem! ### 5/5 — Upgrade *2020-10-03* I think this is the best one in the market It would be perfect if the tap actions would be customizable to what ever you need. For example instead of tapx3 being WhatsApp I would like for it to be FaceTime that upgrade would make this a 5star app for me. **Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! We have implemented this feature in the current version (5.3). ### 5/5 — GREAT APP *2020-06-08, version 5.2* Absolutely works great. ### 5/5 — A very convenient app *2020-05-20* This app works great all the time and is convenient and very easy to use......it gets 5 stars and they are all deserved! **Developer response:** Thanks a lot for the great feedback! ### 5/5 — . *2020-04-24* Ich finde diese App super ‚ was mir zu verbessern einfällt sind nur 2 Dinge. Die Anzahl der Kurzwahltasten erhöhen und die Tasten wie im Karussell anordnen ‚ am Ende der Tasten bist du wieder am Anfang . **Developer response:** Vielen Dank für das tolle Feedback! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
